Huy Trieu Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

Dr. Trieu was very humorous and knowledgeable. His assistant for the seminar was his nurse and she was very personable too. He seems very focused and confident, overall I liked him very much as did my mom, who is a surgery skeptic by the way.

My first impression of Dr. Trieu, was that he is a very knowledgeable. He had a great relationship with a prior patient that was at the seminar. Unlike most doctors that forget your name if it is not written on the file. I have seen him 4 or 5 times now and he is very kind and caring. The office staff make you feel like you are the only one that they have to take care of. Lori is wonderful and has cired right along with me as well as the receptionist Pat. To me surgical competence is way more important than bedside manner. That is what family and friends are for.

I attended the information meeting and have had my first consultation with him. I liked him right away and felt very comfortable with him.rnrnPeople who have had the surgery by him rave about him.

Dr. Trieu is a wonderful man. He is thoughtful and shows great concern for any my health and welfare. I truly feel blessed to have him as my surgeon.

My first impression is that he is very knowledgeable. He was very upfront with me in that I am not a canidate for Lapband and was patient in answering my questions.rnrnI have had my pre-op visit with Dr Trieu and I am still very confident with his ability. He is very patient with all my questions and took the time to make sure that all my questions got answered. rnrn His office staff have been great and very understanding of how difficult it is to wait for this surgery. They have never made me feel that my calls are a unwelcome.rnrnAfter care is strongly stressed. Follow ups with him, the Nutrionist, and trainer are all \"required\". rnrnI have not found anything negative about Dr Trieu or his office up to this point.rnrnThese are just my personal impressions of my own personal experience and I am making no statements about what other people may experience.

My first impression of him was that he knew what he was doing. Everyone in the office is GREAT, at first it took a while for me to get into the dietician but now they have 2 so things are much faster apparently.rnrnMy surgery is April 14th 2008!!!!!!!!!!

My first impression of Dr. Trieu was at the WLS seminar I attended in August 2007. He seemed very personable and was willing to answer any questions - even some that seemed \"out there\" to me (like the lady who asked, \"If I'm determined to kill myself smoking cigarettes, how soon can I begin again after surgery?\"). rnrnWhen I saw Dr. Trieu in his office for my initial consult, he was very informative and patient about answering questions.rnrn3/14/08 Update: I saw Dr. Trieu for my final consult today. He was very patient and answered all of my questions. I never felt like he was in a hurry, even though I know he arrived at the office at least 15 minutes late (if I was his first appointment), as I saw him come hurrying in. He seemed very confident in his ability to do laparoscopic surgery, even on very large patients. I guess if you have to have surgery, better a confident surgeon than a nervous one!

I immediately liked my Dr. He was very informative and very casual which I liked about him. He seemed very confident . He was very personal and we seemed to have a good rapport. I have seen him again for my first fill and he was very gentle and informative. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a surgeon .

My appt.s have been wonderful, I brought pages of questions with me, he answered with patience and compassion, He also gave me his personal e mail in wich I used a few months into to ask a blood disorder question, he quickly replied and encourged questions.rn rn

Dr. Trieu is a small, quiet man. He is a typical surgeon in that he is great at the surgical part and not so wonderful with the bedside thing. I am a low-maintenance patient, so no problem for me...for the high maintenance patient the office staff picks up the slack.rnHe is definetly a TEAM approach doctor...he does not even discuss the diet with you,that is not his specialty, he is the man behind the scalpel...let the well trained nutritionist deal with my foods, let him do his part...and I am a happy camper. It is all very structured, no surprises from this team.rnMy only complaint is that after my surgery he was in a rush to get to his next operation and he did not go out and let my husband know I was doing fine. I went in for a 1 hour surgery and after 2 hours my husband was almost in tears thinking something was really WRONG.rnThe hospital nursing staff checked it all out and let him know I was fine, and rushed him into recovery to see me.rnI don't think that is normal for him, the nurses seemed surprised by it.
